C'est
long, c'est court: First single release.
It's jovial, original, and immediately likeable. Véro is at her
best here.

Poussière
de pollen: Great musical intro which gets you
interested from the start. Nice guitar solo in it too. No
so fast, but a good easy listener. Il
a tout ce que j'aime: First "B" side. I like
this, but not until it gets near the end. It builds up into
quite a respectable song, but it takes time.

Le
temps est assassin: The first Véronique Sanson
track I heard, so it has a soft spot with me! It's also a very
popular track and indeed one of my early favourites.

Tout
va bien:
Tout va short and sweet also! Don't get me wrong, it's
quite OK too.

J'y
perds des plumes: Second single release. A well
known classic amongst Véronique's fans. Featured at la
Rochelle, 1994 sung with Maxime Le Forestier - great!
Interesting cover to the single... as if
someone went wild with some pens... or maybe it is "modern
art"! Perhaps it was this guy Christopher Stills??!!

J'ai
la musique au moins:
Second "B" side. This lovely track simmers with
sophistication! It's got that touch of originality to it making
it a really beautiful song in a special way. This is the way I
love the piano
played. It would have made a good "A" side.

Avec
un homme comme toi:
Véro is on song. A good "jamming session"
sound. One of those songs with a touch of "rock 'n'
roll". C'est bizarre: It is rather, not least for it's
length (or lack of it). The lull
before the magnum opus!
|
Ainsi
s'en va la vie:
I imagine this as Véro's "Bohemian Rhapsody". Many
different little melodies, and like several songs blended into one.
Clearly a hard worked track, and very rewarding results.
